My views were written independent of books or the opinions of others.—Manuscript 7, 1867, 2. (“Writing out the Light on Health Reform,” 1867.) 1MR 29.3

You think individuals have prejudiced my mind. If I am in this state, I am not fitted to be entrusted with the work of God. Letter 16, 1893, p. 1. (To W. F. Caldwell, June 11, 1893.) 1MR 29.4

What if you had said ever so much, would that affect the visions, that God gives me. If so, then the visions are nothing....What you or anyone else has said is nothing at all. God has taken the matter in hand.... What you have said, Sister_____, influenced me not at all. My opinion has nothing to do with what God has shown me in vision. Letter 6, 1851, pp. 1, 2. (To Brother and Sister Loveland, April 1, 1851.) 1MR 29.5

There are those who say, “Someone manipulates her writings.” I acknowledge the charge. It is One who is mighty in counsel, One who presents before me the condition of things. Letter 52, 1906, p. 9. (To Brother and Sister Farnsworth, January 29, 1906.) 1MR 30.1
